The next day, Gu Chengfeng also got up late and didn't go downstairs until almost 9 o'clock in the morning, while Su Nuan was still sleeping.
Gu Chengfeng came downstairs and met Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu who were drinking tea and reading newspapers on the sofa in the living room. After greeting them, he prepared to go to the restaurant for breakfast.
Just as I was about to walk towards the restaurant, Grandpa Gu spoke.
"Xiao Feng, where did you and Xiao Nuan go yesterday? When did you come back?"
"Grandpa, we went to the Baiyun Temple to visit the temple fair yesterday. We encountered human traffickers on the way back. Yesterday, Haibo and the other police station were in the village near Baiyun Temple, arresting people to rescue children, so we came back late."
"Have you guys caught them?"
"They caught them and rescued about twenty children. I'll have to go to the police station later to take a statement."
"Then go have breakfast. Ah Fu has left some for you."
Gu Chengfeng nodded and went to the restaurant for breakfast. After breakfast, he drove directly to the police station.
When Gu Chengfeng entered the police station, there were many people coming and going, and the police officers were very busy.
After asking a policeman, Gu Chengfeng went straight to the office to find Liu Haibo.
When Gu Chengfeng entered Liu Haibo's office, he saw Liu Haibo asleep on the desk. Gu Chengfeng did not wake him up. He walked to the table where the kettle was placed, picked up a cup, poured a cup of hot water from the kettle, put it on Liu Haibo's desk, and knocked on the desk by the way.
Liu Haibo opened his eyes immediately after hearing the voice. Seeing that it was Gu Chengfeng, he said directly, "You're here?"
"Didn't you sleep last night? How was the interrogation going? It was so noisy outside."
"Hey, stop talking. I haven't slept all night. I just took a nap. The two Li brothers are stubborn, but the others have confessed some situations. We need to continue to dig deeper. There are families of children abducted outside. They came to the police station to pick up their children. There are quite a lot of people and it's quite chaotic."
"What happened to the kid who tipped off yesterday?"
"That child is an orphan. He was abducted by Li Da before. Later, Li Da saw that the child was smart, so he kept him with him. He was mainly responsible for looking out and helping to abduct children. The reason he was tied up and locked in the cellar yesterday was that he was secretly eating meat in the kitchen yesterday. Li Da caught him and tied him up in the cellar to teach him a lesson. It just so happened that we went to rescue the child yesterday."
"Child, how long have you been trafficked? How many crimes have you been involved in?"
"The child was abducted when he was about 6 years old. He has been working hard for Li Da for the past two years. He can escape the death penalty. I estimate that when the verdict comes out, he will probably be sentenced to life imprisonment."
"Okay, you seem quite busy. Find a colleague to take my statement and I'll be back."
Liu Haibo nodded, went out and called a policeman in. After Gu Chengfeng followed the police to make a detailed statement, he left and drove home.
Su Nuan woke up not long after Gu Chengfeng left the compound. She didn't wake up naturally, but was woken up by the system announcement.
Just when Su Nuan was sleeping soundly, the system broadcast voice sounded in her mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for helping to crack down on a child trafficking ring, rescuing 21 children, and earning 21 merit points."
"Ding, the host's merit points have reached the upgrade conditions. Do you want to upgrade?"
"Ding, would you like to upgrade the system?"
Su Nuan was woken up by the continuous broadcast sounds. She didn't react at first, but after understanding what was going on, she spoke directly.
"Tongzi, are there any changes after the upgrade?"
"The system mall has been expanded, and many new items have been added to the mall. Secondly, skill points have been increased."
"Skill point increase? What does that mean?"
"When you were in Country Y, the system gave you a limited-time martial arts skill bonus. This is a skill point. In addition to martial arts, there are many other skill points, including etiquette, calligraphy, mathematics, music, chess, painting, etc."
"Tongzi, then you should upgrade."
"After the host upgrades, merit points will be consumed. Would you like to upgrade?"
"upgrade"
"Okay, host, the system will be upgraded immediately. The upgrade will take 24 hours, and the mall will be closed during this time."
After the system finished speaking, the mechanical sound disappeared.
At this time, Su Nuan was completely awake. She looked at her watch and saw that it was already past 9 o'clock, so she got up and washed.
Su Nuan went downstairs and had breakfast in the restaurant. Then she sat on the sofa with Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu, drinking tea and chatting.
Not long after they chatted, Gu Chengfeng drove back.
After entering the house, Gu Chengfeng briefly told everyone what he had learned from the police station.
After hearing this, Grandma Gu said, "How many children and families have been harmed by these damn human traffickers?"
Su Nuan nodded aside and said, "By the way, Cheng Feng, did you rescue Cong Cong, whom we met at the temple fair yesterday?"
"He's been rescued. He's in the Li family's cellar. I saw his parents at the police station earlier. The child had inhaled drugs, so there shouldn't be any serious problems. The police station was too noisy with people coming and going, so I didn't go to find out more details."
"I'm glad you're okay. Congcong is still so young. Fortunately, the human traffickers didn't succeed."
Grandma Gu grumbled, "Human traffickers are rampant now. I have to remind Tingting and the others later that if they take their children out, they must pay close attention to them. If they lose their children, it will be too late to cry."
Grandpa Gu asked, "How's the trial going with Haibo? What's the sentence for the person he arrested?"
Gu Chengfeng replied, "They're still investigating. We're mainly digging deeper to find out the details of the rest of the gang and the specific data on human trafficking. With the twenty or so children we've rescued, the main culprit will be sentenced to death, so we don't expect the case to be closed anytime soon."
Grandpa Gu: "These human traffickers are too rampant. I have to report this to the chief. This case must be dealt with seriously."
As the old man said this, he got up in a hurry and went to call the leader.
Several people watched but did not say anything to stop them. Human traffickers are really despicable. It would be best if the country could step in to crack down on them.
